The team leader has asked you to bring suggestions of activities to include in the upcoming internal mock survey to share at the next meeting. You want to include activities that simulate a real Joint Commission on-site survey. You have several ideas from networking with your peers. on the regional, state, and national levels of your professional association and by participating in the American Health Information Management (AHIMA) Engage forum for Joint Commission Accreditation. Your next step is to visit the Joint Commission website at https://www.jointcommission.org/ (Links to an external site.) and review the current survey process to gain a better understanding of what is being done during the on-site survey.
1. Makee at least (4) suggestions that you would include for the next mock survey. Be sure to be detailed in your suggestions and also explain why you are making these specific suggestions. Remember you are providing suggestions from an HIM perspective.
